This woman and her husband had three children together– two sons, who are 19 and 17-years-old, as well as a daughter, who is 7-years-old.

And, about three weeks ago, she and the kids stayed back at home while her husband claimed to be going on a work trip halfway across the country.

According to her, though, she and her family later found out that was “just another one of his lies.” Instead of traveling for work, her husband had actually just gone away to meet up with his affair partner and cheat on her.

Plus, to make matters even worse, her husband ended up getting into a fatal car accident. This meant that his death was the only reason she ever found out about the infidelity– which had reportedly been going on for the past five years.

So, as you can imagine, she has been dealing with all sorts of conflicting emotions.

“Yeah… it’s been a very fun few weeks. Feel fantastic,” she said sarcastically.

As for the children, only her eldest son currently knows about the affair. However, she, her son, and the rest of her family all agreed to keep the secret to themselves.

More recently, though, while trying to coordinate the funeral, yet another problem arose concerning her late husband’s affair partner.

Apparently, the other woman wanted to be involved in the whole event. Understandably, though, she told her late husband’s mistress that would not be possible and asked for her family’s privacy to simply be respected.

The decision was not just for herself, either. Despite her eldest son trying to remain strong for his younger siblings, he has still been battling a lot of anger and grief himself.

So, she believed that having the mistress there would only cause more problems on an already horrible day.

Lo and behold, though, it appears that her late husband’s mistress decided to completely disregard her wishes and show up anyway. In fact, upon arriving at the graveyard, the other woman was already there!

Now, she did claim that the other woman was standing some distance away rather than right next to her family.

“But [the mistress] was still close enough to everyone to just make her stand out as if she wanted to be seen,” she added.

So, at that point, she informed her brother that the mistress was there, and thankfully, he was able to remove the other woman without causing too much of a scene.

Still, right afterward, she reportedly received a text from the mistress and actually got accused of being selfish for trying to block her from the funeral.

Moreover, the other woman claimed she was “robbed” of the chance to say goodbye properly.

So, ever since then, she has been feeling slightly bothered by the messages. She claims that she has found herself justifying her actions numerous times since the day of her late husband’s funeral. Plus, she honestly believes that she did what was right and put her children first.

“[The mistress] had no business there, and her presence would only cause drama,” she added.

On top of that, she believes that the other woman could always go to her late husband’s grave to say a private goodbye if she really wants to.

Regardless of her own feelings, though, the entire situation has still been bugging her. In turn, she has been left wondering whether not allowing her late husband’s affair partner to go to his funeral was the right thing to do or not.

Can you imagine dealing with the death of your husband and the news that he was cheating for years all at once? Did she have a right to refuse the affair partner’s attendance at the funeral? How would you have reacted if the mistress showed up anyway? Do you believe she handled the situation correctly?
